Win-Win Shituations

PLAYERS: Scott Kazmir
TEAMS: Tampa Bay Rays

I’m not making any predictions about how Scott Kazmir’ll do tonight, and sadly I won’t be around to join in on tonight’s B&C live blog hosted by Maas. But I know that no matter what, Devil Ray Town will come out winners.  Either our boy does us proud and shuts down the Yankees, or we look like geniuses for trading that shlub who got shelled by both the Red Sox and the Yankees this postseason. It’s pretty similar to how I feel about Torre and the Dodgers.  When they lose, the Yankees look bad; if they somehow win, the Yankees look bad.
